2011 Buick Enclave Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 0 | The headrests on the two front seats are a NIGHTMARE! I had to recline my driver's seat slightly because the headrest pushes my head and neck so far forward, it was causing me to have pain and spasms in my neck and shoulders! I don't know who signed of on this design, but they were clearly asleep that day! I've heard this issue has been addressed in newer models and (I think) there is a newer option for which you can swap out these awful headrests. I may look into that... see full Buick Enclave review |

I drive about a 1000 miles a week. After driving the Suburban for 2 months, my back problems have gone away. Feel fresh after a 3 hour drive see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review |
